Acerca de esta escucha

A mysterious plague ushers in an intergalactic war that ravages the galaxy for decades. A soldier and a pilot are tasked to deliver a package. A messenger and a refugee decide to work together on a dying alien planet. A love letter is lost that could be the key to a new future. A dark comedy about the messages we carry in our bones.

Entertaining with a twist ending

Simply loved the narrators and interactions and the story was so well written. Wish it was longer

A step forward for audiobooks.

My only complaint is that there wasn't more. absolutely loved it. The multiple narrators helped to keep me engaged and the extra sound effects were a brilliant touch. Great listen!

Excellent story and performance

This short story situates interpersonal drama alongside thoughtful consideration of politics and ethics in an imaginative and sometimes funny science fiction. I liked it more than expected.

Wait, that's it?

Sadly, this feels more like a short story that could make a good basis for a novel, especially with the setting details included. Heck, you could probably create a several novel series, or maybe even many short-series, just by working on expanding out the setting itself. Maybe use this as the start of something larger, and to help tie certain points and parts of a grander saga together, and you'd have something great. Instead, just as it finally starts to pull itself together and become something interesting it ends, which really doesn't work well for a stand-alone title, though at least it is short enough it doesn't feel like it is dragging on before it gets to that point.
